Hello, to my Irish cousins!  My Gggrandfather was Charles Cone Deasy and he was born around 1832.  In 1848-9 he married Bridget Dooly (their spelling) and set sail for America--arriving in 1849 and settled in Bordentown, New Jersey.  I've searched for years trying to find info on him in Ireland and have been there twice but couldn't locate anything about him. In his bible, he had the word BANDON written and also John Deasy, Buffalo, NY.  From this, I figured he was from Bandon and had a relative named John who was living in Buffalo, NY but have never had any luck finding anything along this line.  I do know that they came to Bordentown, NJ, because Bridget had family living there.  Charles' mother also wrote him a letter from the Trenton, NJ area but she did not give her name other than "your mother."  She spelled the Deasy surname "Deacy." Some people have said that his middle name "Cone" was probably short for Cornelius. However, he named his son Charles Cone Deasy, Jr. so it seems that his middle name actually was Cone.  Any help would be appreciated! 

Thanks,
